Variety and Seedling Show 2025
Agrico looks back on a successful Variety and Seedling Show 2025
From Wednesday 5 to Friday 7 November, the International Variety and Seedling Show 2025 took place at Agrico in Bant. This edition focused on the power of innovation.
Visitors from the Netherlands and abroad were introduced to the latest developments in potato breeding and discovered our promising new varieties and seedlings. The show once again offered an inspiring platform to demonstrate how Agrico, together with growers, partners and customers, is working on the potato of the future. With a strong focus on yield security, wherever in the world our varieties are grown, we remain true to our motto: think global, act local.
Besides the presentation of new varieties, the show was also a valuable moment of connection. In an open and engaged atmosphere, knowledge and experiences were shared, and there was ample opportunity to catch up with colleagues from the sector and with Agrico employees.
Theme 2025: Stronger by Nature
The theme of the International Variety and Seedling Show 2025 was Stronger by Nature. Innovative varieties developed to perform with low input and high output.
This year’s focus was on future-proof varieties that are stronger by nature: naturally bred (non-GMO) and equipped to thrive in a changing world. From the effects of climate change to changing laws and regulations, our breeding efforts directly address the challenges faced by our growers and customers.
Through natural crossing, we develop varieties with strong intrinsic disease resistance, low input requirements and high yields. This gives our portfolio reliability where it matters most: yield, quality and income. Whether it’s resistance to nematodes and viruses, natural protection against phytophthora or excellent storability, Agrico always has the right variety.
Stronger by Nature reflects both the natural strength of these varieties and the breeding process that brings out the best in nature.
